Time to Take a Hair Break

Chemical treatments, coloring, hairdryers, straighteners and curling irons—Meet your match! New and improved, Absolue Kératine Renewal Care from Rene Furterer Paris is an intensive therapy for damaged, over-processed hair which can be used two to three times a year for four to six weeks at a time as a break from a client’s usual haircare regimen.

Formulated with three reparative key ingredients—camelina oil, biocymentine and plant-based Keratin, this powerful renewal ritual helps to repair and enhance damaged, over-processed hair deep down, helping restore it to its former resilience.

The Absolue Kératine line includes a Repairing Shampoo, two Ultimate Repairing Masks (one for fine to medium hair and one for thick hair), and a Repairing Beauty Cream.
